What is your opinion on the above and should I go ahead with my application or wait until 2018 to meet the 10 year requirement? Purely based on what you have shared here I'd suggest waiting until you meet the Good character requirement, count 10 years from whenever your last breach in good characte...
You can get into the head of the caseworker who will weigh and assess your case in HO guidance here: http://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/406368/Chapter_18_Annex_D_v02.pdf I believe clause 8.4 is of relevance but the docs that were submitted could not be verified...
Hi All I am about to apply for British Citizenship and fortunately stumbled upon a few posts where it has been mentioned that the full immigration history of the last 10 years is scrutinised, which made me to seek help regarding my situation. Just to give a brief idea of my immigration history. Firs...
Had an ILR appointment booked for myself on 26th June 2014 based on Work Permit Dependant Visas. Impressed with the new building and the current appointment system. I booked my appointment on the 20th June and was surprised to get a date on the 26th. I remember before I used to try to book for an ap...
OP is going to be fined by the Court for an offence which is not deemed as minor, leading to an unspent conviction and thus not eligible for ILR. OP has already said that husband is about to apply ILR, so I assume it will be in the very near future, so she will have to wait until 5 years for her con...
If you are fined by the Court, then you have an unspent conviction and ILR will not be granted. Your husband should apply for ILR and then you should apply for FLR and it doesnt matter if you have unspent conviction.
We had documents in Joint names as we have been married for the past 4 & a half years, but as you have been just married, you do not require this information as Lucapooka said.
The 3 months bank statements which has been stamped by the Bank should be okay. The rules mention that they just need the last statement and payslip which should not be earlier than 28 days of your appointment. You should take your P60 and explain the CW that you have opted out of paper statements a...
Sharon8 do not worry. the certificate that you have is a valid certificate and you do not need any further documents to confirm the validity. I got married in the Church and I also have the same certificate, but issued by the Methodist Church in India which has been signed by the Priest and two witn...
Dear all Just wanted to update on my application. I had my appointment at Croydon today for FLR (M) Application at 8:50 AM. I had an unspent conviction of DR-10, so had to go for FLR instead of ILR along with my wife who qualified on 5 years Work Permit. The documents that were asked are as follows:...
Then I think it is just a matter of persuasion with the CW to return the passport, in case they are unable to make a decision on the same day, which is unlikely for straight forward applications.
If he needs his passport and to be on the safe side, you should get his first page of the passport attested at the issuing country's embassy in London, if they have one. If you read the Guidance Notes, you will find this information. You could persuade the Case Worker on the day of your interview, t...
I think there are two questions for the salary, the first one is hourly and the second one is based per annum. You just have to calculate the hourly salary multiplied by your contracted weekly hours and multiplied by 52 weeks, which will give you your per annum salary. The question on the number of ...
Sorry I should have mentioned this earlier, I have got an unspent DR10 conviction so will not be able to apply for ILR until end of first half of 2014.
Also will I be able to apply for FLR on the same day my wife gets ILR at the PEO, or will I have to wait until she receives her BRP card.
Can anyone please let me know if I have to meet the current Financial Requirement for FLR M. My wife will be applying ILR and then I would be applying for FLR. She currently has 5 years work permit and I joined her in Apr 2008 as her spouse and on Dependant Work Permit Visa. Section 7 A on page 17 o...
check the above link. you should use the date when you were granted your HSMP Visa, but I am not sure how you would be able to apply for ILR when your visas were just issued on 20th July 2012.
If you think you do not understand the process and the guidelines, then you should definitely seek professional advice of an immigration solicitor / advisor. This forum is very helpful as well, If you have any particular doubts, you could raise your queries and any of the members will respond and yo...
I am not an expert but don't you think that you have submitted documents which may not have been required. I guess you have over done the application and have left the CW confused, but if you meet all the requirements, you shouldn't worry but just wait.
You should try booking an appointment after mid night. All new appointments are released after midnight. Due to the high volume of users of the website at the same time or may be maintenance of the website, you may find it difficult to proceed to the next step, but keep refreshing the page and you w...
